** Yunjie Yang noticed that he was not getting optical photons at all in HDG4 whereas he was seeing a reasonable amount in HDG3. Justin looked in the problem and found that "the material properties weren't getting set for the G4OpticalSurface in HddsG4Builder". Richard will review the change to make sure that there are no other relevant properties that need to be set.

Review of minutes from the last meeting

We reviewed the minutes from the meeting on July 2. See the entry for Issue #109 below for the discussion.

HDGeant4 and the Time-of-Flight Upgrade

Sean has noticed that there are a few geometry parameters for the TOF in HDGeant4 that have hard-wired values. These should come from the HDDS files served by the CCDB. Richard agreed to have a look.

[Added in press: Sean created Issue #123 after (during?) the meeting].

DIRC simulations

See the entry for Issue #121 below for discussion on this topic.

Tracking Efficiency Study

We reviewed the plots that Naomi sent to Mark. These have been shown at a previous tracking meeting. See Naomi's slides for the details. We looked at the plots near the end. They show good overall agreement between efficiency for pions and protons over a wide kinematic region when comparing HDG3, HDG4, and real data.

Issues on GitHub

We reviewed the issues.
